Chapter 118: The Expected Discord
"General Qu Cheng, for the time being, the three of you will stay in this tent first, what do you need, just give orders to the soldiers outside the tent."
Che Yu, the general under the account of Xuancheng Jun Xiong, took Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, and Wu Majiao to a small tent and said to them kindly.
"Thank you, General Ziche." Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, and Wu Majiao clasped their fists and said gratefully.
Zi Cheyu waved his hand kindly, turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly as if he thought of something, turned around and added: "By the way, if there is nothing important, the three of you had better try not to leave this tent, lest you ...... I think all three of them understand. ”
"The last general and others will understand." Qu Cheng clenched his fists and thanked.
Seeing this, Zicheyu smiled at the three of them, lifted the tent and left.
As soon as he left, Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao's faces suddenly changed, and during this period, Wu Majiao walked a few steps to the vicinity of the tent, slightly lifted the tent, and watched the movement outside.
Gu Liangwei, on the other hand, grabbed Qu Cheng's shirt and glared at him with gritted teeth.
"Are you crazy?" Qu Cheng frowned and broke free a few times, but unfortunately Gu Liangwei grabbed the ground too hard, and he couldn't break free for a while.
I saw Gu Liangwei ignoring the unswerving on Qu Cheng's face, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Qu Cheng, what is the intention of what you said in the tent?" Are you going to turn your back on King Su? ”
"It seems that you are really crazy, and you actually told 'that one' in this Chu camp." Qu Cheng looked at Gu Liangwei mockingly, lowered his voice and sneered: "If you turn your back, you two will be executed." …… Let it go, do you think Xiong Tuo won't send someone to stare at us? ”
Gu Liangwei turned his head to look at Wu Majiao, and then hesitated to loosen Qu Cheng's clothes, but the doubt in his eyes still did not subside: "What are you going to do?" ”
Qu Cheng straightened his clothes and turned his head to look at Wu Majiao. Seeing that the latter was paying close attention to the movement outside the tent, he lowered his voice and said: "It's not that so-and-so wants to do something, it's that if so-and-so doesn't say that, he can't dispel Xiong Tuo's suspicions about us." …… I believe that so, so-and-so knows Xiong Tuo better than you. ”
However, Gu Liangwei turned a deaf ear to Qu Cheng's remarks and asked in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense." I only ask you, why did you offer Xiong Tuo a plan to remind him to temporarily suspend his army and fight again next year...... Do you know that only when Xiong Hu is defeated, we can only survive?! ”
Qu Cheng shook his head and said firmly: "Don't worry, someone knows Xiong Tuo better than you." …… Xiong Tuo has a good face and will never admit defeat easily, a certain Yue said that. He is increasingly reluctant to agree to a truce this year and another year. …… Don't forget, he wants to achieve more amazing achievements than the "Guling Jun" Lord Xiong Wu, and boost his momentum in Dachu, now that Lord Xiong Wu has won in the Song Dynasty, how can he be willing to be trapped in Yanshui and not be able to advance an inch? ”
"Then what you said ......"
"It's just to dispel Xiong Tuo's doubts about the three of us...... After all, we are the generals of the defeated army, and we have been captured, how can Xiong Tuo easily believe the three of us? ”
"......" Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao glanced at each other, and the suspicion in their eyes dropped slightly.
Long. Gu Liangwei couldn't help but remind: "At the moment, we have no way out, if Xiong Tuo defeats that one." After rescuing Xiong Hu, we all have to die...... Even the children in the family have no way to live. ”
"Huh." Qu Cheng snorted lightly and said lightly: "Trust that one." A certain view of that one has a chance to defeat Xiong Tuo......"
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Liangwei: "It's not that I don't trust that one, I don't trust you." ”
"Then you'd better try to trust me. If I hadn't been persuaded by that one, I wouldn't have returned to Chuying with you. ”
"......" Gu Liangwei glanced at Gu Liangwei deeply. After all, he nodded slowly and said in a low voice, "It's better to be like this, Qu Cheng." …… Neither a certain nor a witch horse is from an aristocratic background, and it is very clear that after that incident. Neither of us can gain a foothold in the Chu State anymore, so we can only throw ourselves to 'that one'...... So, you'd better not do anything that makes us suspicious, or if I don't survive, death will pull you back. ”
"Okay, I remember what you said." Qu Cheng smiled and nodded, and then reminded in a low voice: "Then, you'd better keep my words in mind." …… When I returned to Chuying this time, the one personally promised that I would be the master in everything, so it was best not to do anything like that again. ”
"......" Gu Liangwei moved his mouth in thought, and finally nodded slowly after exchanging glances with Wu Majiao.
Seeing this, Qu Cheng showed a little smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Okay, this matter is over, let's change into armor and go to the camp to get something to eat first." ”
Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao nodded, changed into the armor given to them by the talented man Cheyu in the tent, and then the three of them walked towards the outside of the tent together.
As soon as they came out of the tent, they saw five Chu soldiers standing outside the tent who seemed to be talking and laughing or something, and the five Chu soldiers saw Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, and Wu Majiao leave the tent and followed quietly.
Obviously, this is Xiong Tuo's eyeliner arranged to keep an eye on the three of them.
"Sure enough, someone was sent to keep an eye on our ......" Gu Liangwei pretended to look around, took the opportunity to glance at the staring Chu soldiers behind him, and whispered a reminder to the two companions.
"Be content." Qu Cheng lowered his voice and said lightly: "At least it is not arranged outside our tent openly, otherwise, your actions alone are enough to make him suspicious......
"Shh Gu Liangwei pursed his lips and said angrily: "Do you think someone is stupid? …… It was when Wu Ma saw that there was no one outside the tent that I ......"
"Shh Wu Majiao's whispered reminder interrupted Gu Liangwei's words.
It turned out that it was the five Chu soldiers behind him who walked closer.
Seeing this, Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, and Wu Majiao didn't dare to whisper anything anymore, but just looked at the camp casually, asked the passing Chu soldiers all the way, and came to the place where the food was distributed.
It is undeniable that even though the three of them have secretly surrendered to Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, they are treated almost the same as the 30,000 Chu soldiers captives, only when they left the Yanshui camp of the Wei army, they had eaten two dried steamed buns, and they were already hungry at this moment.
No, when they took over the rice and hot soup from the Chu soldiers of the rear army who were in charge of cooking, they were so moved that they almost burst into tears.
Because at that time, they would have become unjust souls who died in vain.
Fortunately, everything had passed, and they returned alive to the army of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, and Zhao Hongrun, the king of Wei, may have promised them all kinds of generous treatment, so generous that their hearts have gradually favored Wei.
What's even more incredible is that His Royal Highness King Su of Wei also used his unceremonious and even somewhat insulting words to successfully dispel the only concern in their hearts, so that their "three ants" do not have to worry about being crossed by His Royal Highness King Su to cross the river and tear down the bridge and "run over with boots" after the matter is completed.
Just as the three of them were eating military rations and drinking soup to satisfy their hunger, suddenly there was a commotion in the distance.
Qu Cheng, Gu Liangwei, and Wu Majiao wondered in their hearts, and walked over with a wooden bowl, wanting to see what was going on.
After taking a closer look, they realized that it was the contradiction between the 30,000 former Xiong Hu soldiers who were released back by the Wei army and the soldiers under the command of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng.
The reason for the matter is this, after accepting the 30,000 prisoners of war who were released back by the Wei army, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, out of consideration for the army's heart, asked the soldiers in charge of cooking in the rear army to give priority to taking care of these 30,000 people, after all, these 30,000 are as hungry as Qu Cheng and others, and everything is like food.
But when these people swarmed to the place where the food was distributed, there were already many Xiong Tuo soldiers lined up in a long line, waiting to receive the food one by one.
Originally, this matter was understandable, because after Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, accepted the 30,000 former Xiong Hu soldiers, the first time was to order Chu General Yan Mo and other generals to arrange a tent for these 30,000 people to stay, after all, in such a cold winter, it was impossible for the original Xiong Hu soldiers who only had a single coat to survive the night in the cold night.
During the period when the 30,000 former Xiong Amber soldiers arranged to stay in tents, Xiong Tuojun's soldiers began to receive the military rations distributed.
At this point, all this is understandable.
But the bad thing is that the 30,000 Xiong Hu soldiers are already hungry at this moment, and their chests are close to their backs, and the strong hunger makes them unbearable to line up behind the 80,000 Xiong Tuo soldiers to receive food.
Therefore, the soldiers of Xiong Hu's army made a request to Xiong Tuojun's post-sergeant who was responsible for distributing food, asking the latter to give them food first, after all, they could only get a meager amount of food every day when they were in the Wei camp, and when they were released by the Wei army, although each person received two steamed buns, it was not enough to fill their stomachs, not to mention that they had to travel more than 20 miles to come to Xiong Tuojun's camp.
In response to these people's pleas, General Chu, who was supervising the distribution of food, thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement, signaling the soldiers of the former Xiong Amber Army to also line up and distribute food together.
But in this way, the 80,000 soldiers under the command of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, were unbalanced in their hearts.
Thinking about it, the two lines of teams distributed food at the same time, which undoubtedly made the Xiong Amber sergeant who was in the back of the line have to face the fact that "they can receive food later".
These people thought sullenly in their hearts: We have worked hard to cut down the wood for a day and built the camp in the first place, and at this time we are also hungry, why are you prisoners who were released by the Wei army in front of us?
And the soldiers of the original Xiong Amber Army were not satisfied.
In their minds, the Wei army was their enemy, so it was understandable to punch and kick them during their captivity, but in fact, under the restraint of His Royal Highness the King of Wei State, most of the Wei soldiers treated them quite favorably, not only did they kill them, but also distributed some food.
Although it is true that each person receives very little of the things.
But you know, it was the food that the Wei army gave to them, and it was the food that their enemies gave to them.
As an enemy who lives and dies on the battlefield, they can't expect the Wei army to do more for them.
But these Xiong Tuojun's soldiers in front of them are their allies, can't these friendly soldiers be a little more patient and let them get food first?
Seeing that the soldiers of his own team were squeezed aside by those soldiers of Xiong Tuojun, a former Xiong Hu soldier said angrily: "Even those Wei soldiers will not treat us like this!" ”
This sentence ignited this infighting that quickly evolved from a scolding war to hand-to-hand combat. (To be continued.) )
